Dr. PIERRE G\u00c9RAIN March 21 2024 Informal Caregivers provide much-needed assistance both to the person with a loss of autonomy and to the care system in general. Despite the benefits this role can bring to caregivers, it is also worth exploring the difficulties it can pose. The research on burnout provides a rich framework for understanding the difficulties faced by caregivers. This presentation will provide a brief history of the concept of caregiver burnout and explain how it answers to major limitations in the existing literature. Based on a model (the Informal Caregiving Integrative Model) and empirical findings, a structure of risk and protective factors will be proposed to better understand the sources of caregivers’ difficulties. This will enable us to define key points of attention in the consideration of caregivers in both research and clinical practice. Finally, we will look at the prospects for the field, particularly the role of the SCOHPICA project in improving our understanding of the challenges facing informal caregivers in the years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recommand\u00e9 par la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Suisse des Sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9s en pr\u00e9vention et sant\u00e9 publique (SPHD) pour la reconnaissance de la formation continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The PowerPoint is available here (English)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
